If Not Before.

Dear soul,
Remember listening with me,
To a song named 'Shamandalie'
Ignorant of the words,
Enchanted by the melody.
"Can I ever have what I had then?
Friendship unbroken.."
Well I never knew,
How those words became true,
But soul, hear this, wherever you are,
Whether you drift,
Or are caught in tempest afar.
Look out, and see the true Light,
I pray you will make it,
-You're not made for the night.
I pray I'll see you one day on the glistening shore,
I'll see your smile again,
If not before.

Author notes

A passing thought! If you don't know the song, check it out on Youtube or something... Shamandalie by Sonata Arctica. Give it a go, it's rather beautiful.
